Chapter 274: You Have Such Heavy Taste!

So, holding the soup in his mouth for a long while, waiting until his taste buds had somewhat adjusted to the indescribable flavor, he finally swallowed with difficulty and took a breath.

Lucas King: "...Mr. Hart, are you all right? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? I'll call a doctor."

"There's no need." Christopher Hart replied weakly, asking, "What kind of soup is this?"

"The lady said it was carrot and mutton stew. It's been getting colder these days, and you're weak, so you need some nourishment. She specially made mutton soup for you."

"Mutton soup tastes like this?"

Lucas King brought the soup closer and sniffed, frowning, "Hmm, seems like... there's a pepper taste."

Christopher Hart's misery was hard to convey.

It was more than just a taste of pepper.

The soup was both salty and spicy when it hit the tongue.

Salty, naturally, because too much salt had been added.

Spicy, because there was too much pepper powder.
